I'd say, in over 20 years of running the OSC, which has expanded exponentially over the last 10 years, that he's done quite a lot more than most of us.
In that sense PB, Kevin has. I don’t doubt that for 1 minute.
But outside of the OSC he doesn’t come across as representing the wider fan base on important issues like match day ticket prices, away ticket distribution, etc.
I appreciate as the OSC GS he‘ll say the wider City fan base isn’t his remit. He’ll say he represents the OSC members, which number in the 10,000’s, and that’s it. But by representing the OSC fan base, which I’m a member of, in essence, he represents all of us. We’re all one big City family and fan base.
Kevin is in a privilege position that he has worked hard for over the years, to be fair to him, that gives him access to the people at the top of the club. You know how that works as you’ve been in that position via City Matters before you stepped down. So Kevin should be fighting for every City fan, not just OSC members on issues like match day ticket prices, away ticket distribution, etc.
I’m not asking him to spill the beans about meetings with the club. That will never happen. You didn’t do that when you were the City Matters Rep. I’m not having a go at you about that. But I knew, and all of us did, that you were actively fighting our corner on various issues effecting the wider City fan base. I know how it works when you have meetings with the club. I’ve been there myself in the past. It’s made plain and clear that what is discussed stays private.
All I want him to do via his (OSC) social media page is to acknowledge there are on-going issues regarding match day ticket prices, away ticket allocations, etc, that need addressing, he’s trying to address those issues on behalf of the wider City fan base with the club, and he's trying to get the club to be more open and honest with the wider City fan base about those on-going issues.
I’ve got no interest in reading Micah Richard’s is a cock on his X/Twitter page.
